Reading into things on Twitter - it looks like that Hornswoggle match might have been his farewell match or something

- New Day's dickery and excessive celebrations are tremendous

- Lana/Dolph segments are painful to watch.

- Watching the main event, I realized that I am almost fine with any of the 8 man faces/heels against each other in singles.  I think I'd be down with a Owens/Ambrose program or even an Orton/Harper since it would be a fresh match.

Kofi giving Woods a bouquet was amazing.  I cheered, clapped, and laughed heartily.  If you had told me a year ago that Kofi Kingston would rule as a heel, I would have thought you were nuts.  But my goodness, he's tremendous.  The vitirol just pours from him and it's fantastic.

 

Did they cut off Sasha's mic when she starting talking about Bryan?  It seemed like it.

 

ME was fun.

However long it took for the New Day stuff it felt like it took us double the time to watch it.  So much rewinding and laughing at the absurdity of it all.  The backstage bit, Big E's Frankenstein-like clap walk, the splash of doom and discomfort to El Torito, and the fucking flowers at the end.  There was so much pure gold in all this.  Man, you can make one helluva gif gallery out of this episode alone.

 

I think before long Vince is going to get his wish and they're going to be big-time faces.  People are starting to like them and it's only a matter of time.  As long as they don't force it and let them be them they'll be fine.
